Dreamcast Now; why do Monaco GP and POD Racer share a tile/background?

Just curious why each game has its own tile but Monaco GP and POD Racer seem to share a split tile and screenshot? Anyone know?

I believe the Now service works by checking the DNS query to determine which game is being played. If two games use the same DNS queries, which Monaco / POD might since they're both Ubisoft titles (I'd have to double check), then there's no way to differentiate them.
